Welcome to Walker-Winter

Today is National Dolphin Day and it reminds me why our Walker-Winter mascot is the Dolphin! Dolphins are the most social and intelligent mammals in the ocean and develop strong bonds with other members of their dolphin pod which can be up to 1,000 dolphins. Just like dolphins, our students are smart, playful and care about our school community. 

See the link below for our Walker-Winter Weekly update...there's a lot of important information!

Our 5th graders will be taking the M-STEP this week and it's our Buy One, Get One Free Scholastic Book Fair week. 

Also, check out the info on our FREE WWCS Summer programs, Middle School Transition Nights, Autism Acceptance Spirit Week coming soon and important information from our Food Service department on how to qualify for the Summer EBT program. 

Additionally, Food Service is looking for feedback on our food service provider, Aramark. Do this survey with your child so they can share their thoughts on our FREE breakfast and lunch program.

Have a good week ahead!

NEWSLETTER: Walker-Winter Family Update - April 15, 2024

While Teacher Appreciation Week falls in May, every day is a chance to recognize the incredible impact school staff has on our children's lives. Teachers, counselors, administrators, and everyone in between dedicate themselves to fostering a safe and nurturing environment where students can learn and thrive. Their tireless efforts inspire curiosity, build character, and shape the future of our communities.

Greetings Wayne-Westland Families.  

As the end of the school year draws closer, students and staff are gearing us for the last day of school just over one month away. To keep students engaged in learning all summer, he district is planning comprehensive summer learning programs. 

Students and staff face unique challenges in today's fast-paced, technology-driven world, which can significantly impact mental health. This year, our district has brought significant attention to mental health and the importance of self-care. From our opening session with teachers on day one, we have focused on seeking resources as we navigate a challenging environment.

I want to provide you with an important update regarding our district's technology resources. As you may know, our schools have been fortunate to receive funding through the Emergency Connectivity Fund (ECF), a grant that has allowed us to provide iPads with cellular service to elementary students for educational purposes.
